RideProvide is Greater Mercer TMA’s transportation program for seniors and visually impaired adults in Mercer County and Plainsboro, NJ. We provide door-to-door transportation in private vehicles, Monday through Friday, within our service area. RideProvide offers a safe and dependable transportation option for those who don’t drive or choose not to drive.

How does RideProvide work?
First you need to become a member. Annual membership is $40 for an individual and $60 for a family. We then help you set up a pre-paid account that pays for the rides. Cash is never exchanged at a ride, and tipping is not permitted.

How do I become a member?
Call 609-452-5140 for an application and information packet to get you started.

How do I reserve a ride?
It’s easy! Members call our reservation number 609-452-5144 between 10 A.M. and 2 P.M. weekdays, at least two business days in advance.

How many rides can I take?
You may travel as often as you like, anywhere in Mercer County or Plainsboro: to the supermarket, hairdresser, restaurants, malls, doctor, family, etc.

How much do rides cost?
Ride fees are based on a zone system. Each zone is roughly equal to a municipality in Mercer County. Fares are per person, each way:

Within one zone, the base fee is $8

To a neighboring zone, $12

Further travels, $17

There is a 15% discount for sharing rides. There is a $5 surcharge for rides scheduled before 8:00 am. Tipping is not permitted. Trips to Princeton Healthcare facilities are free.
